This was a WILD story. Love the raw sharing here, Robbie. A few things that stood out to me:

1) “If you die before you die, you won’t die when you die” i

2) "Restriction provides the ability to actually enjoy your life more in the normal moments."

3) Generally, your relationship to the dark and how much we rely on our sense of sight to tell our brain that we are safe. I imagine you crawling or feeling your way to the toilet. Fiddling around to open your meals. It's insane how much we rely on this one scent.

Glad that you didn't have COVID and the half-day out on Day 8 felt like heaven for the simple animal that all humans are. Funny how normal for even the most educated people to fall into slumps. These kinds of resets are what many need right now. Maybe not a Dark retreat but a trip to Inward when things open up ;)

Thanks again for writing this!

I felt everything with every word sometimes to the point of tears and other times laughing out loud. Such a an extraordinary courageous experience. Wow!

Beautiful read this, Rob. Thanks for sharing this.

My heart smiled at this and at the memory of meeting you and Emily in Berlin a few years ago.
